Wall Street Celebrates the Inauguration of Donald J. Trump with Exuberance

Markets advanced 94 points today, a stark difference from when Obama was first sworn into office and the market got decapitated for 4% of its worth.

Breadth was around 65%, with the majority of gains found in shippers, gold, tankers, silver and regional banks.

There are a ton of EPA plays out there, like $NAK, worth exploring and we’ll get into that as the weeks progress.

With oil prices firming and environmental restrictions abating, we could be entering a golden age of oil exploration — including fracking and deep water drilling.

Two plays off the top of my head, both which are dear to me, are $FTK and $RIG.

Let’s not forget nuclear energy, something I am adamant about for the next 4 years. My favorite plays there are $CCJ, $UEC and $URG.

Lastly, come check out Exodus, free through Sunday. You can even spy on my GARP index, my personal portfolio of shitty stocks, and the wide sundry of tools that make the platform magnificent.

I’m just about Trump’d out. I’ve spent all of my emotional nationalistic pride these past few months and truly hope for a period of calmness — permitting me to focus my frantic energies on finance related matters.

A New Era of American Intergalactic Greatness is Here

Ostensibly, all is going to be right now — beginning with the left, recognising their folly in opposing the God Emperor, falling to their knees in supplication — as freedom eddies in from the wilderness of 8 long, hard years of tyranny. The economic boom to be will be evenly distributed — permitting the national debt to be reduced — amidst a splendour not enjoyed on a national scale since…well never.

Bathrooms will be properly labelled. Medicine will be cost efficient. The wars will end. Canadians will stop flowing into our country. And the stock market will boom.

Jobs will be resplendent, even bountiful. The technological boom will continue and commence into aspects of life extension and inter-galactic travel, permitting us to make friends will other forms of life — living in harmony with small green men armed with laser cannons capable of wiping out Kentucky with one squeeze of the trigger.

Our beloved leader, Donald J. Trump, shall be rendered immortal, a God amongst men — a time traveler whose sole purpose will be to bring forth a calm normality of estimable qualities. His reign will last forever, or until he deems fit. His son, Barron, shall look after the old and the weak — helping them mechanize their bodies with space aged technologies to make them strong again, to make them great again.

Champagne toasts and cocaine sniffs for all. A dizzying panorama of edible delights shall be strewn out onto every table, and a felicity will strike a cord with all citizens, both young and old, happily and merrily until the clock strikes midnight and the heavenly father calls.

Amen and,

Long live Donald J. Trump

Obama’s Legacy Will Be Forever Etched in Halls of the Federal Reserve

He was the Fed’s best friend ever. Could they’ve had a better business partner than Obama, taking the Federal budget and clown raping it with ruinous levels of spending. The Fed’s mandate shifted from tinkering with rates during periods of need to blatantly controlling asset prices and the economy.

As of right now, during the final hours of Obama’s presidency, the Federal Reserve has never been more powerful. It is the central bank to the world — doling out liquidity to whoever needs it — regardless of national sovereignty.

Plainly, it has become a caricature of itself, a cabal weaponized to the point of lunacy — totally unchecked and operating in the shadows with impunity.

There are many things that will be forgotten, many mistake that will be corrected, after Obama has gone.

But this will last forever.

Obama has accumulated more debt than all of America’s Presidents before him, combined.

Nancy Sinatra Calls Out CNN for a Most Absurd Fake News Report

Nancy Sinatra isn’t a Trump fan. She’s pretty active on Twitter opposing his view and that’s here perogrative.

I suppose one of the shills at CNN equated that to Nancy being opposed to Trump using her Father’s song during the inauguration.

Please.

IMG_6156

The article was written by a high level retard. It had zero citations or actual quotes. Quite literally, the writer just made the shit up and Nancy called bullshit on it.

The lie was then passed on by other apes, like The Hill, who enjoyed this article being shared over 11,000 times by avid purveyors of fake news.

Why in the world would CNN lie about something so meaningless as a song being played by Donald?

It’s very simple. They’re not honest brokers. The organization is hellbent on making Donald into a monster, by mocking, deriding, impugning him at every juncture.

Their press credentials should be revoked at the White House.

The Fuckery is So Real With $DRYS, It’s Almost Unbelievable

Full disclosure: I bought an 8% position in $DRYS about a week ago, and have rued it every since.

To me, investing has always been a creative outlet. I love the ebbs and flows of it and all of the nuances that often go unnoticed.

Let’s look at $DRYS, as an example.

After the election, this stock went on such a run, people thought they just invented a fucking time machine. The message boards were rampant with speculation, by ebullient traders basking in the warm glow of a stock on fire.

I did warn you.

The company did a financing. The stock got annihilated. It sold off a little more. And then got annihilated once more.

Yesterday is dropped an asinine 35% on news of a reverse split. Explain that logic to me.
IMG_6155

In short, the stock — quite literally — shot higher towards the sun, got burned, and came crashing down — wingless and depraved. After a 2,000% move higher, it’s now down 99% from its highs.

So after all of that drama, what does the company do to shore up investor confidence?

THEY BOUGHT ANOTHER VESSEL.

What in the actual fuck?

DryShips announces that it has acquired one Very Large Gas Carrier currently under construction at Hyundai Heavy Industries for a purchase price of $83.5 mln. The Company financed the closing price of $21.9 mln by using part its undrawn liquidity under the $200.0 mln New Sifnos Revolver, which now stands at $142.9 mln. The $61.6 mln balance of the purchase price for the VLGC will be payable in installments until the vessel’s delivery from HHI.

“We are very pleased to have acquired our first high specification VLGC newbuilding opening a new era of investments since the restructuring of our balance sheet. The closing of our first investment in the gas carrier segment, DryShips announces that it has acquired one Very Large Gas Carrier currently under construction at Hyundai Heavy Industries for a purchase price of $83.5 mln. The Company financed the closing price of $21.9 mln by using part its undrawn liquidity under the $200.0 mln New Sifnos Revolver, which now stands at $142.9 mln.

“We are very pleased to have acquired our first high specification VLGC newbuilding opening a new era of investments since the restructuring of our balance sheet. The closing of our first investment in the gas carrier segment, which we believe will be highly accretive to earnings and cash flow, was financed by our New Sifnos Revolver evidencing once more Mr. George Economou’ s commitment to DryShips.”

I guess we don’t have to sorry about the company dropping $83m into this black hole of a vessel, since it’s going to be ‘highly accretive to earnings.’

Wading Through the Final Hours of Pre Greatness America

Some people believe D.C. is going to be a plutonium wasteland by the end of the day, with 65 democrats opting out of the event, alongside the all of a sudden sick George Bush 1, signaling a red flag of chicanery to come. But I doubt anything will happen today, other than Donald Trump, officially and quite amazingly, becoming the 45th President of the United States.

If you’re on Twitter a lot, like I am, be sure to follow iBankCoin’s own Zeropointnow. He’ll be live tweeting the event.

For those of you who aredently oppose Trump, because of the MUH Russians or for some other high anxiety reason, chill the fuck out and have a drink. You’ll be fine at the end of his 8 years, just like some of us are fine after Obama’s. And please don’t get caught up in the ancient trick used by government to placate mobs, the elixir of false hope to distract them from their grief. Accept Trump and grieve your losses like men and move on.

He isn’t going to get impeached.

We’re going to have a shitload of fun under Trump, a wild cannon who says whatever the hell is on his mind. Personally, I loathe politicians, always talking from both sides of their ass. We’ll get straight talk from Trump. We’ll be treated like adults, and not transgender retards. Lastly, America is going to be great again and both Mexico and China will pay for their many transgressions.

Investment wise: expect change. I prefer nuclear stocks.

Here Were the Biggest Winners and Losers During Obama’s Reign of Terror

At the end of the Bush administration, I hated the republicans. George was such a fucking idiot, alongside the tea party retards. I viewed Obama as a welcomed respite. In hindsight, I probably voted for Obama to prove that I wasn’t some sort of redneck racist.

The Obama administration was very good for stocks — maybe the best ever. But at what cost?

The national debt has doubled, borrowing more than $9 trillion since 2008 and the Fed’s balance sheet has gone from $700 billion to $4.5 trillion. This whole economy is a fucking illusion, a sham. Try to unwind those positions and start paying down that debt and you’ll see the true nature of the economy and the markets.

Obama did nothing, other than kick the can down the road — passing on a nuclear time bomb for future generations. By that fact alone, I consider Obama a grandiose failure, of the community organizing varietal. I’m not even going to get into the wars and his social policies — which has laid waste to the social fabric of America.

So what stocks did the best over the past 8 years, an era defined by crony capitalism, massive advances in technology, and social networks?

BAD NEWS FOR TRADERFAGS. Most of the big winners were held captive by FRED ‘Fucking’ WILSON and his crony capitalist VC pigs. Those greedy fuckers presided over monumental gains in social networks. Here are a few.

Facebook: $4b valuation in 2008 to $363b today.
Twitter: $1.5m valuation in 2008 to $12.3b today.
Yelp: $200m valution in 2008 to $3.2b today.
Snapchat: $485k in 2012 to $25b today.
Airbnb: $20k valuation in 2009 to $30b today.
Uber: $200k valuation in 2009 to $70b today.

That’s where the real money was made. Let’s see what scraps were left over for us — the little rich people.

$TREE +5,130%
$NFLX +4,415%
$JAZZ +4,400%
$DPZ +3,517%
$MKTX +3,300%
$PCLN +3,100%
$ULTA +3,000%
$INCY +2,800%
$MGPI +2,800%
$PPC +2,200%
$PRSC +1,700% (literally a welfare play)

And here were the losers.

$BBRY -85%
$APOL -85%
$SPWR -79%
$SHLD -77%
$FSLR -76%
$RIG -75%
$AVP -73%
$FRO -73%
$CYH -66%
$JCP -66%
$CHK -65%
$BBG -64%

Notice any trends? Which will be the biggest winners and trends under Trump?

I saw a world in need of automation, superfluous comforts indicative of a nation with plenty of excess. It was an era of wanton hedonism for the elite, and a grueling struggle for everyone else. One cannot discuss Obama without thinking about healthcare — his cornerstone issue during his time in office. It failed and now we have to deal with the ramifications.
